Congrats to the June 2016 Scholarship Winner!- Kaitlin Samuels

“This scholarship means so much to me, with tuition rising and choosing to live off-campus for my junior year I have been worried about how I’m going to pay for it all. Thanks to Cedar Education I can worry a bit less, so thank you so much!”

Congrats to the June 2017 Scholarship Winner!- Julia Xavier

I was pleasantly surprised to learn that I had received this scholarship. In an age when a college education is so important, yet so expensive, companies like Cedar Education that work to make the transition to college easier financially are indispensable to students. I am so grateful. Thank you so much, Cedar Education!”
